Agreed. A simpler case: Create a new file in the project; Xcode automatically adds it to the git staged index. This is wrong. The whole point of the way git works is that I get to decide what gets staged (to go into the next commit). I have to quit Xcode and do a git reset, so that I can construct the staged index the way *I* want it.

It would be great to be able to turn off Xcode's interference with the git status of files (since, like Stefan, I can do far more at the command line) while still being able to take advantage of the versions viewer. m.
